honoring quarterback Justin Fields on the brick wall of the restaurant. Fields went to Kennesaw Mountain High School two miles away, and had just been signed by the Chicago Bears. The city council was not happy with the mural and ordered them to take it down. There was a huge backlash from the people living here so they finally backtracked and allowed the mural to remain. The store owner had to pay a fine for not getting a permit but the mural several years later is still there. Sometimes there is no common sense with these city leaders.
